Police State

South African police kill 34 striking miners and wound 78 others. Police claim self-defense, as if the striking miners hunted down the police, not vice-versa. This is a good reminder that agents of the state have a license to kill. They are vampires. We are prey.

Russian police arrest Gary Kasparov for protesting the Pussy Riot conviction. Apparently Pussy Riot is not a punk band at all, but activists backed by the CIA.

"In fact the "group" never seems to have recorded or actually written a single song.They do have some interesting backers in addition to the usual Western entertainers, however. As is well-documented, PR has open connections to the National Endowment for Democracy (surprise). Oksana Chelysheva, listed as the head of the group's support campaign, also happens to have been "Deputy Executive Director" of the Russian-Chechen Friendship Society, a strange pro-extremist outfit which is funded by the National Endowment for Democracy. Chelysheva also has other extensive US government ties through her leadership roles in other NED and George Soros-funded outfits like the Finnish-Russian Civic Forum and the EU-Russia Civil Society Forum."

Are you shocked?

As if it wasn't enough that DHS was loading up on bullets, the Social Security administration is buying 174,000 bullets. This is evil.
